What is DNA
Hereditary material
Carries and passes on genetic information
It is a nucleic acid
Made up of nucleotides

The DNA Double Helix
Two parallel strands Each with a series of bases to the insideThe bases are directly opposite each otherThe bases link each other in pairsThese links form the steps of the ladder

The Bases
Adenine (A)
Thymine (T)
Cytosine (C)
Guanine (G)

The Base Pair Rule
The bases can occur in any sequence along a strand of DNA
But the sequence must be complimentary to the sequence on the other strand
![Page 8: DNA](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070419/56815c3f550346895dca3d70/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The Base Pair Rule
Adenine can only join to Thymine A T
Guanine can only join to Cytosine
G C

![Page 12: DNA](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070419/56815c3f550346895dca3d70/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Non Coding DNA
Only about 3% of DNA is composed of genes
97% of DNA is non coding DNA or junk DNA
![Page 13: DNA](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070419/56815c3f550346895dca3d70/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Coding DNA
The parts of DNA that contain information to make RNA or protein
Coding DNA in genes are called exons
![Page 14: DNA](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070419/56815c3f550346895dca3d70/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Non Coding DNA
Do not contain critical information for the production of protein
They are now thought to play a role in gene expression
Non coding DNA within genes is called introns
![Page 15: DNA](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070419/56815c3f550346895dca3d70/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

RNA
Ribonucleic Acid
Operates with DNA to make proteins
Has Uracil instead of Thymine
![Page 17: DNA](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070419/56815c3f550346895dca3d70/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Differences between DNA and RNA
DNA
Double strand
Sugar is deoxyribose
Has Thymine
Very long
Self replicating
Found only in the
nucleus
RNA
Single strand
Sugar is ribose
Has Uracil
Short molecule
Not self replicating
Found in nucleus and
cytoplasm
![Page 18: DNA](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070419/56815c3f550346895dca3d70/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Similarities between DNA and RNA
Both are nucleic acids
Both contain adenine, guanine and cytosine
nucleotides
Operate together to produce specific proteins

Nucleotides
Nucleotides are carbon ring structures containing
nitrogen linked to a 5-carbon sugar (a ribose)5-carbon sugar is either a ribose or a deoxyriboseIn eukaryotic cells nucleic acids are either:
Deoxyribose nucleic acids (DNA)
Ribose nucleic acids (RNA)
